When Daylight Saving Time concludes, Winter Time 2026 will commence in Egypt. This change will take place at the end of the final Thursday in October, as mandated by Law No. 24 of 2023. On this day, clocks will be reverted back by 60 minutes, reverting to standard time from the daylight saving time that was previously in effect.

During this period, clocks had been advanced by one hour. To help mobile users adjust their devices, they can manually set their clock to the correct time by accessing settings, selecting "Date & Time," and enabling automatic date and time updates. Alternatively, they should check time zone settings, ensure automatic updates are enabled, and manually adjust the clock if necessary following the transition to winter time.
